It has been reported that Kevin Holland subdued a gunman at a restaurant shooting in the Highland Park neighborhood of Houston.<\/p>\n

Holland, 29, competes in the welterweight division of the UFC. ‘Trailblazer’ last fought at UFC 272 on March 5th where he defeated Alex Oliveira (22-12 MMA) with a TKO win in round 2.<\/p>\n

It all happened at the Ra Sushi restaurant in Highland Village late last night, March 14th. Apparently a man in the restaurant pulled out a gun and fired one shot into the air in the bar area, causing patrons to duck for cover. The establishment had an estimated 40-50 people in the building at the time.<\/p>\n

A panic alarm went off at the restaurant and the police received calls of a shooting in progress according to HPD Sgt. Ricardo Salas.<\/p>\n

“We were eating, and the next thing you know, a gunshot just popped off. So everything paused and then everybody started running to get down under a table,”<\/em> said Patrick Robinson, one of the patrons who stopped the shooter.<\/p>\n

“We got him down, apprehended him, got the gun away from him and the bag that he had,”<\/em> Robinson described to ABC13<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It was Patrick Robinson, who trains in mixed martial arts, and Kevin Holland who sprung into action after the shot was fired. A third customer also helped out by holding down the\u00a0 suspect. The three quick thinkers, rushed the shooter, disarmed him and held him until the police arrived.<\/p>\n

No one was injured<\/a> in the incident.<\/p>\n

The suspect, a 24 year old male, was taken into custody at the scene and charged with possessing a stolen gun and the discharge of a firearm. The unnamed man is also wanted for failing to appear in court on a previous criminal mischief charge.<\/p>\n

While Kevin Holland declined to be interviewed by local media, he did post a video of himself and Robinson together outside of the restaurant following the altercation. The short video was posted to Twitter.<\/p>\n
